The military tested a new version of the loitering ammunition "Lancet-3" in Syria

Basic version "Lancet-3"

A deeply modernized version of the Lancet loitering ammunition has been created in Russia, the kamikaze drone has already passed the necessary tests, including in Syria.

The new version of the "Lancet" differs from the base model with "updated aerodynamics" - the drone was equipped with one large X-shaped wing and an X-shaped plumage in the tail section, while the previous model had two symmetrical X-shaped wings. In addition, the modernized "Lancet-3" received a warhead of increased power, as well as an increased range and duration of flight. Characteristics drone are not disclosed, on the website of the developer company there is information only on the basic model.



However, the military-diplomatic source, whose words are referred to RIA News, said that the military had already tested a new version of the Lancet-3 loitering ammunition in Syria. Whether the tests of the upgraded version of the loitering munition have been completed or are ongoing, the source did not explain.

As part of the tests, a new version of the Lancet-3 loitering ammunition was used several times by Russian military units against terrorist positions in Syria

- he said.

The basic version of the UAV "Lancet-3" has a takeoff weight of 12 kg, while the weight of the warhead is 3 kg, which is reflected in the name of the UAV. The drone develops a speed of 80 to 110 km / h and can hit targets within a radius of 40 km from the operator. For guidance, three systems are used: coordinate, with the help of optoelectronic means and combined. The drone is equipped with a television channel that transmits an image of the target and allows you to confirm its defeat. The fuse is pre-contact.

    The thing is definitely awesome. We are not far behind Israel. In appearance, he reminds me of someone ... an earthen pig .. he is an aardvark or aardvark - the best digger in the world .. lives in Africa where the Maasai tribe lives. Ancient creature comes from dinosaurs. In Russia, the first two individuals appeared in 2011. It digs a hole 5 meters deep in 5 minutes.

        "Lancet-3" was used several times by units of the Russian military on the positions of terrorists in Syria

      The thing is, of course, awesome, but we are lagging behind Israel and even China. The fact is that the Lancet UAV models do not fold wings and there is no possibility of launching from a container. This is how China does

        One should not casually humiliate a person with ignorance of Anglicisms ... In Russian, the word "power" is 1. outdated. ability to act; potential. 2. great strength and power. 3. conquering force, irresistible influence, the influence of something.
        Additionally, power - it is rather a relationship between people, the ability of one person to force another to do his will.
        Concerning
        The power of ammunition - an indicator of the effectiveness of its action at the goal. For example, the power of high-explosive projectiles is determined by the area of ​​the destruction zone; armor-piercing - the thickness of the pierced armor at a given angle of impact; fragmentation - the area of ​​​​the reduced zone of fragmentation, determined by the number, mass and speed of expansion of the fragments; for all projectiles - the probability of hitting the target.
        Glossary of military terms. - M .: Military Publishing House. A. M. Plekhov, S. G. Shapkin. 1988
        Now we look at the definition of power.
        Power - this is a physical quantity that shows the speed of work and is equal to the ratio of work to the time for which this work is performed. Since energy is converted when doing work, we can assume that power characterizes the rate of energy conversion.
        In English, all these characteristics and meanings are indicated by one word - : strength, energy, power, power, energy, power, power ...
        ***
        In my opinion, power is the most correct name ... But, according to the understanding of many Russian “effective scientists”, this sounds rustic, archaic ... Whether it’s a matter of power ... The most interesting thing is that there are even units of measurement for this quality. ..
        Akin to "loud-sounding": manager, provider, merchandiser...
        ***
        At this stage, the reasoning can be ended with the words from the joke about inertia:
        And in our opinion, in Russian it is ... called.

          Well, it's not just a play on words, it's a generalized expression. If you try to give a precise definition, then the ability to influence the target in order to damage or destroy it. As an example, the power of remotely detonated shells of 30 mm caliber against infantry, approximately 80 mm mine. And when smoking out of the trenches, it is already comparable to howitzers. This is relatively everything, a purely engineering term

              In principle, it will do with the addition - for infantry, for infantry fighting vehicles, etc. This is a more capacious meaning, usually there is still ammunition, weight, barrel life, etc., etc. Power is more delineated ... Something like that, I didn’t come up with ...
              Using the lancet as an example, it may be more powerful, but less effective. wassat judging by the wings, control has deteriorated, it has become peculiar, the weight has increased - delivery was difficult, etc.
              Well, probably the engineers came up with for the humanities, so as not to give them a few sheets, anyway, for them it’s a flimsy letter

        For the first time I saw a similar characteristic in the media about 10 years ago, like "now this will be accepted", instead of the definition of "ammunition power". It still hurts the ear.

        The literal dictionary meaning of the word "Power" is social/religious/political power expressed by forceful methods, a demonstration of the power of coercion.
        And physical processes, such as a chemical reaction, or energy exchange in its course, are determined by "Power".

        So, in my understanding, this is a sad example of how illiteracy becomes the rule for the sake of a "red word". Wretched.

      The power of ammunition
      The ability of projectiles, warheads of missiles, air bombs, mines and other munitions in nuclear and conventional equipment to cause damage of the required level to the object of destruction (target); characterizes their action at the target. .. . The indicator M.b. can serve as the area of ​​the affected area (its average value is the area of ​​the reduced affected area) or the radius of the reduced zone. Sufficiently complete reflection of M.b. finds in the coordinate law the defeat of the object, i.e. depending on the conditional probability of hitting a point target on the distance between the target and the epicenter of the explosion. M.b. is a property of the projectile-target system. A projectile of the same power has little power when it hits a heavily protected target and more power when it hits a weakly protected target. M.b. can change in time if the security of the target in the process of exposure changes.

        A projectile of the same power has low power when it hits a heavily protected target and more power when it hits a weakly protected target.

        In addition, the modernized "Lancet-3" received a warhead of increased power

        The power of the warhead has increased!
        The basic version of the UAV "Lancet-3" has a takeoff weight of 12 kg, while the mass of the warhead is 3 kg, which is reflected in the name of the UAV

        If it happens that power not increases from an increase in the power of the warhead, then maybe the product itself is not intended for this purpose? or power is not correct.
        In my opinion, the word power is the word parasite.
        1) The power of the warhead is not enough to hit the target.

Explosion - Rapid physical or physico-chemical a process that takes place with a significant release of energy in a small volume in a short period of time and leading to shock, vibration and thermal effects on the environment due to the high-speed expansion of the explosion products. An explosion in a solid medium causes destruction and crushing.

                    Each profession, industry, discipline has its own glossary, quite official, used in scientific literature, not counting any slang words, etc. "Power" is quite officially used as a generalized characteristic of increasing the destructive effect of ammunition on a target. The growth of power is achieved in different ways - by increasing the charge of explosives, using explosives with increased brisance and / or explosiveness, changing the principle of destruction (water hammer, shock core, etc.).

            there is another question about UAVs: what is more important - the experience of applying past concepts or the actual electronics that implement these concepts at some technical level.

      everything looks like something...
      Hedgehog - in needles.
      Elka too.
      (S.Ya. Marshak is a funny alphabet.)

      Willows rustle on the mountain,
      A bee is ringing on the willow,
      Striped like a zebra.

      Into our boat sometimes
      Water is gathering
      In the depths a star floats
      Silver like a fish.

      In the grove - maples and oaks,
      And under them there are mushrooms,
      Each mushroom is like an umbrella.

      A young month has come out,
      The sky looks like water
      The cloud looks like a wave
      Month-boat wooden...

    The military tested a new version of the loitering ammunition "Lancet-3" in Syria

    The question is how many we have. For a good mess, you need a massive application.

    that's good .. the next step is a full-fledged cumulative fragmentation warhead. A warhead from an RPG-3 with a penetration of 7 mm and fragmentation rings will just fit in 500 kilos - a universal UAV will turn out

    It's good that the performance has been improved. I wonder if the problem of the sound of this ammunition was solved? In previous comments on the use of these drones, the phrase was often heard: "The militants, having heard the sound of an approaching ammunition, (rushed in different directions, tried to take cover, etc.)" That was the lack of "Lancet-1" and "Lancet- 3"! hi

      it’s unlikely, it’s difficult to hide an electric motor .. but in the conditions of, say, a battle, you won’t hear it because you’ll already be deaf .. in principle, you can raise the UAV to a great height, but then you need to put better optics .. Or, as an option, do the gliding ammunition mode by turning off the engine when diving

        Well, this is how to look. He took off himself, he scouted himself, he destroyed it. Or earlier, a reconnaissance aircraft flew out, spotted a target, an attack aircraft or a bomber flew out and worked out the target. Now we estimate the man-hours of flight personnel, then the cost of working time for 2 aircraft + the risk of falling under anti-aircraft fire, so what is cheaper in the end?

          KMK here is not about "he scouted", but about remote guidance, i.e. it is a remote-controlled mine with aerial maneuver. In other words, it looks like a loitering BP, but it's still a past concept: a suicide bomber.

          so which is cheaper?
          Television in general is a specific thing. Target selection, redirection, and even identification. If you try to shift all this to automatic systems, then their cost can easily turn out to be even higher. If the task is simpler, to destroy everything that moves in a given area, then television is not necessary there either. But then again, if confirmation of destruction is not needed.

    It only takes one year to attach folding fenders and make a box launcher for a truck. Now that the basic hut plane is ready, it's easy to finish it. It looks like a very good ammo and is probably much cheaper than the Israeli version.

    This is a technology under development. And every step forward is positive.

    In general, I tend to think that ammo in standard formats will have an edge in the long run. And loitering suicide combat drones are conceptually ammunition.

    For example, container launch platforms for suicidal combat drones look like a useful and practical development with a future. But the problem with this would be the cost of producing specific launchers and ammunition.

    Given that suicidal combat drones are conceptually munitions, and that container launchers make practical sense, it is highly likely that all work on suicidal combat drones will eventually lead to new munition variants in the form of suicidal combat unmanned aerial vehicles to be launched from existing standard multiple rocket launchers, artillery systems and tanks. In the case of Russia, most likely, new ammunition options will be created for the BM-21, BM-27, BM-30, as well as for calibers 122 mm, 125 mm, 130 mm, 152 mm, 203 mm and 240 mm, with the functions combat unmanned aerial vehicles and various ranges.

    The benefits of including suicidal combat drones in the standard caliber system are clear.

    On the other hand, the disposal of the project 2021 Vladimirets ship in 11451 led to the complete withdrawal of the project from the Russian Armed Forces. There are still 2 blocks of this project in Crimea, which Ukraine was not able to complete until 2014, and I would not rule out that they will be completed. Project 11451 would join the list of projects that the last units excluded for preservation at the museum level, if they were still present in the armed forces of Russia, Belarus, South Ossetia, Abkhazia and the Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk, would render the best service to protect all of them on the territory Syria and, as a result, are very likely to go to Syria in the short term:

    This is a technology under development. And every step forward is positive.

    In overall terms I tend to think that ammunition in standard formats will have an advantage in the long term. And loitering sucide combat UAVs are conceptually ammunition.

    As an example, the container launch platforms for loitering ammunition are looking a development useful and practical, with a future. But the problem with this would be in to build specific launchers and ammunition.

    Taking into account that loitering UAVs are conceptually ammunition, and that container launchers make sense in practical terms, it is very likely that all the work on loitering UAVs lead finally to the creation of new variants of ammunition, in the form of loitering UAVs, to be launched from current standard Multiple Rocket Launch Systems, artillery systems and tanks. In the case of Russia, it is likely to see the creation of new variants of ammunition for the BM-21, BM-27, BM-30, 122mm, 125mm, 130mm, 152mm, 203mm and 240mm calibers, with the loitering UAV features , and different ranges.

    The advantages of to include the loitering UAVs in the system of standard calibers are clear.

    In the other side, the disposal in 2021 of the Vladimirets of the Project 11451, caused the total exit of the project from the Russian Armed Forces. Still there are 2 units of this project in Crimea, that Ukraine was not able to finish, and I would not rule out to be finished. The Project 11451 would join the list of projects which last units out of museum level conservation, if present still in the armed forces of Russia, Belarus, South Ossetia, Abkhazia and the Republics of Donets and Lugansk, would make their best service to the defense of all them, in the territory of Syria, and as a consequence are very likely to go to Syria in the short-term:
